Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin's road to marriage began more than three years ago.
The two have known each other since they were teens but sparked romance rumors in late 2014. They dated on and off and were even rumored to be engaged in 2015, following a bogus news report.
Bieber and Baldwin's romance sizzled over the 2016 New Year's holiday, when they vacationed in the Caribbean. Weeks later, they spent Super Bowl 50 Weekend together. During the next two years, the two spent time apart dating other people; Last fall, Bieber rekindled his relationship with Selena Gomez for a while, while Baldwin and Shawn Mendes sparked romance rumors.
Bieber and Baldwin reignited their own flame in June 2018, and have since traveled together to places like Miami and New York City, where he proposed to her the following month. On Thursday, September 13, E! News learned they had a marriage ceremony at a New York City courthouse. The two plan on tying the knot in another ceremony in front of family, a source said.
